5 Best Craft Breweries near La Crosse

“The back patio is an great space to sit and talk, plenty of room, and variety of styles available“

“Great tasting brews, and wines. Bartenders are knowledgeable on what you may drink in their brewery. They are also knowledgeable about the local bars and restaurants in downtown La Crosse for food to go and enjoyment of the downtown area. I got to enjoy the taste of the Cherry Stout, roasty and chocolate malt character with just a kiss of dark sweet cherry, ABV 6.9%. On a personal note, it's a stout flavor, with the consistency of a Porter.“

“Pearl Street brewery is a pretty cool little brewery that moved into the old La Crosse boot factory; it's dark and industrial with low ceilings. They have lots of space with a little outdoor beer garden. They generally have 16 of their beers on tap with a few that well distributed. On my last stop they had lite, a lime, Brown, chocolate strawberry porter, orange hazy IPA, Hopped IPA, Pale Ale, amber wheat, hibiscus sour, citra IPA, Oat Stout, an aged sour, Belgian Quad, margarita sour, a double IPA, and a cucumber seltzer. The service and the patrons are friendly. It is worth a stop and you may catch a band on the right night.“

“It was a beautiful day to enjoy the patio! We shared shrimp tacos & smoked wings. They were both outstanding in taste. Smoked wings & delicious sauces were perfectly paired, best ever! Shrimp Tacos were also the best we've ever had as well. Fresh tasty shrimp with the most unique slaw ever. I wanted to order a bowl of slaw on the side! Beer was spot on & refreshing. Delicious IPA. Our server 'M' had an excellent personality was amazing, very attentive & made our experience there fabulous! Kudos to the cook & entire team here! We will certainly be back & will recommend as a must stop place! 👏“

“TANKER: For Corn syrup unloading park at green right next to train tracks facing south on the shoulder. Come from north on Front St so you can park facing south, no street parking there so might be good to come close to your appointment since on the shoulder only 2 trucks can park. You will unload on red facing into loading dock.You need 2 hoses to unload.“
